NEW QUESTION # 209
Patient has a 5 cm tumor in the left lower quadrant abdominal wall. A horizontal skin incision is made directly over the tumor in the patient's left lower quadrant and dissection was carried down through the dermis and subcutaneous tissue. The tumor is located and completely excised using electrocautery. The specimen is sent immediately to pathology to rule out cancer. What CPTand ICD-10-CM codes are reported?
Answer: C
Explanation:
1. Procedure and CPTCode Selection:
The scenario describes the excision of a 5 cm tumor located in the left lower quadrant of the abdominal wall.
The tumor was excised down to the dermis and subcutaneous layers and removed using electrocautery.
Code 22903 is appropriate for the excision of a soft tissue tumor in the abdominal wall greater than 5 cm, making it the correct CPTcode.
Code 22901 applies to the excision of a soft tissue tumor in the abdominal wall but only for tumors 5 cm or less. Given that the tumor in this case is exactly 5 cm, it meets the threshold for 22903, which is more appropriate here.
2. Diagnosis and ICD-10-CM Code Selection:
ICD-10-CM Code D49.2 is used for a neoplasm of unspecified behavior in the abdominal area, reflecting the fact that the pathology report is pending to determine if the tumor is malignant.
Code C76.2 would be incorrect because it is for malignant neoplasms of unspecified abdominal areas, which we cannot confirm based on the initial excision. Similarly, R19.04 (indicating a mass in the abdominal region) is a symptom code and is not appropriate for a definitive diagnosis when a neoplasm code (D49.2) exists.
3. AAPC and CPTCoding Guidelines:
Per AAPC coding guidelines, the size of the tumor is critical in selecting the correct excision code for abdominal wall neoplasms. Additionally, if the tumor's pathology is not confirmed as malignant, it is coded as a neoplasm of unspecified behavior until further details are known.
Therefore, based on CPTand ICD-10-CM coding guidelines, the verified answer is B. 22903, D49.2.
NEW QUESTION # 210
Adenoids, tonsils, appendix, and spleen belong to which organ system?
Answer: A
Explanation:
The adenoids, tonsils, appendix, and spleen are all part of the lymphatic system, which plays a crucial role in immune function and the filtration of pathogens. These organs contribute to the body's defense by trapping and eliminating bacteria and other pathogens.
Adenoids and tonsils are lymphatic tissues located in the throat and help prevent infection by filtering pathogens from inhaled or ingested particles.
The appendix contains lymphoid tissue and is thought to play a role in gut immunity.
The spleen filters blood, removing old or damaged blood cells and producing lymphocytes for immune response.
The other options are unrelated:
B: Gastrointestinal: Involved in digestion, but not specifically immune response.
C: Cardiovascular: Involved in blood circulation, not immune response.
D: Nervous: Coordinates sensory and motor functions, unrelated to lymphatic tissue.
Therefore, the correct answer is A. Lymphatic.
NEW QUESTION # 211
(What does the suffix-graphmean?)
Answer: D
Explanation:
In medical terminology,"-graph"refers to aninstrument used to record(or produce a record), while"-gram" refers to therecord/image produced, and"-graphy"refers to theprocess of recording. This set is frequently tested because the terms look similar. Example: anelectrocardiographis the instrument; anelectrocardiogram (ECG/EKG)is the tracing produced;electrocardiographyis the act of recording. The distractors are surgical suffixes:"-desis"typically indicates surgical binding/fusion, and"-rrhaphy"indicates surgical repair by suture.
"Z-plasty" is a plastic surgery technique; "instrument used for Z-plasty" is not a standard suffix definition.
For CPC-style questions, the safest approach is to memorize the trio:graph (instrument)/gram (record)/graphy (process). That pattern also helps with radiology terms (mammogram, angiography) and diagnostic testing vocabulary.
NEW QUESTION # 212

Lower back: 12 cm, involving fascia
Left shoulder: 8 cm, involving subcutaneous tissue
